The Hawaiian gazette., 1887-10-25
CHARGE By JUDGE B1okEBroS,

Judge BickeTton requested the jury to re-
main seated. lie said they had listened to
great deal of testimony for the past two days
and a half, and tonight they had listened to
arguments as to what they should believe.
The evidence was entirely for them to con-
slider and the Court would not criticlss 1t at
all. They were the sole judges of the evil
dence after applying the law to 1t as given
by the Court. Aud the law was to be con-
sidered By them as given by the Court, and
not as they think the law ought to be. As he
had occasion to say to them once or twice
during this term the responsibility of the
law was on the Court anu not on them. The
evidence had been fully aud lengthily criti-
cised, and he should not refer TO its nature
or the credibility of witnesses. The fouuda-
ton OF this action was the question Of
whether there had been 2 promise of mar
rage and that would be the first question to
consider on retiring to the jury room. If
there had been a promise and an acceptance,
or marriage contract, the next question
would be whether there had beensi bre ieh of
the engagement. This they had 20 fiud from
the evidence. There must be legal and
valid consideration meeting of minds.
The very words, or manner, or time, or
place, va not necessary. They were to
draw from the evidence itself whether
there had been promise and an acceptance.
IL did not appear that any contingency vas

under conditions of fortune, health, or any
thing else-but at all events they must be
satisfied that there was a positive promise.

ability against marriage between these par
ties-neither OF them were minors. His

Mr.. Neumanu, on the Court resuming, ad-
dressed the jury, speaking from Z to o:l5.
He indie ted that this case was only an in
stance of the old story a fascinating wo-
man and susceptible man. 1t was promI
nent from the position held By the de-
PENDANT Premier of the Kingdom. His
main theory was that plaintiff aud her sister
had laid plans to captivate the defendant,
working them up persistently aud skiiifnlly
with a view to making this suit for damages.
The idea of woman so young aud vivaciDus
as plaintiff actually loving "playe led out" OLD
nan was rIdiculed. Her letter to defendant
claiming acknowledgment of the engage
ment, submitted to jacob Lyons perusal
and directed and delivered by him, was critI-
cized at length as a device that would
not naturally be employed by a woman
whose sincere affections mad been trihed
with. Her letter offering to accept a written
acknowledgment that there mad been an
engagement, as sufficient to induce her not
to bring the suit was Gu tracterZed as insin-
cere because before there Was time for an
answer to 1t the suit was filed. Tne evidence

CHICAGO, November 23.-When tn
suit to demolish the great local Gas
Trust came before Judge Tuley, this
morning, the attorney for the plaintiffs

Gas, Light and Coke Company. La,e
yesterday the attorneys representing

awaiting the result of President

says it is impossible not to see the
gravity presented by the prolonged IN

The commission investigating the
Wilson scandal has resolved to keep

witnesses yesterday.
President Grevy, to-day, informed NJ.

He said he would tomorrow ask N.

ANOTHER DEAD MAN.
Was He Killed by a Fall From
His Horse,
OR WAS HE MURDERED?

Justice Braswcll held an inquest over the
dead body Of j. l.. Chain to-day and has
not returned his verdict up to the time OF
going to press. Chain lived six miles north
Of the city and was a respectable farmer.
He was in town yesterday and on his return
home, 1t is said, his horse threw him of In
Stringtown. From this fall death Is sup
posed to have resulted. lie received the fall
about dark yesterday evening and died
at s O'Clock this morning. The principal
furry was an immense cash on the back OF
head. While 1t might have been made
8y u fall from his horse, it certainly had
more the appearance Of wound made
with II bludgoon. This circumstance and
others surrounding the case have given rise
to the rnmor that Chain got into difficulty
with freedman IN Stringtown and was
killed by the negro. While we do not know
what the coroner's verdict will be, from the
proof as It comes to us 1t will probably be
that death was caused by the fall from the
horse.
